Mt. Humphreys can be approached from several trailheads. Buttermilk Road provides the shortest
approach, but requires about an hour of arduous 4WD navigation. The second approach is via North
Lake, easily accessible by 2WD vehicles. The North Lake trailhead provides access via Piute Pass
to the easier SW approach of Mt. Humphreys. The elevation of the two trailheads are comparable.
Camping is available at North Lake.
